…
Alaska Native peoples for
uncountable years prized abundant
salmon runs to the creek at the
center of our town. Ketchikan is
adapted from the Native name for
this stream. The City of Ketchikan
was incorporated in 1900 by settlers
who saw the value of the natural
resources of the area.

our unique
community in

Whether you visit us on a cruise

& CULTURE
K
etchikan was
cited a few
years ago as one of
America’s Top 100
Small Arts
Communities.
Galleries and
public art
display our appreciation of creative
endeavors and
enrich this unique
community for
residents and
visitors alike.
• Native artists, some internationally
known, work in traditional forms
from carving to weaving. Contemporary artists produce amazing work
in media from acrylic to sculpture,
ceramics to watercolor.
• Most local galleries are owned and
operated by resident artists.
• Art exhibits, festivals and special
events occur each year. The artistic
highlight of summer is the Blueberry Arts Festival the first weekend of August, with a dazzling
array of artwork and public events.
Residents turn on in the off-season
with the Jazz and Cabaret Festival
and the Wearable Art Show.
We’re big on public art. Terry Pyles’ piling caps at Salmon
Landing Market render sea creatures in tile. David Rubin’s
“The Rock” on Berth 2 depicts Alaska Natives and pioneers.

Misty Fjords
& TONGASS NATIONAL FOREST
M
isty Fjords National Monument’s deep canals and inlets were carved
by glaciers thousands of years ago and their granite grandeur leads
some to call this place the Yosemite of the North.
The U.S. Forest Service manages the
monument—much of it as wilderness.
The near edge of the 2.3 million-acre
area is 40 miles south of Ketchikan.
Misty Fjords provides outstanding
recreational opportunities and wildlife
habitat. The monument is accessible
by floatplane or boat from Ketchikan.
Mountain goats grazing in numbers on alpine greenery
are commonly observed by flightseeing passengers.
Snowfields melting in granite bowls provide spectacular scenes. For longer, up-close experiences, outfitters
conduct multi-day stays and guided kayak tours.

MISTY FJORDS & TONGASS NATIONAL FOREST
K
etchikan is in the heart of 17 million-acre Tongass
National Forest, the largest in the United States.
This temperate rain forest is integral
to the lifestyle of Southeast Alaska and
always has been. It’s habitat for a rich
abundance of plants, animals and birds.
From the earliest habitation by Northwest Coast tribes, the forest and sea
provided for every necessity. The forest
in modern times has provided wood
for industry and fascinating country for
visitors.
It’s a vast place: you can travel the 500
miles from Ketchikan to Yakutat and
never leave Tongass National Forest.
Around Ketchikan, you’re visiting
Tongass National Forest—whether you
know it or not—when you cruise along
its shores, hike local trails, fly into a
remote lake or camp and picnic at a
recreation area.
As you plan your visit, it will be apparent that the Tongass plays a large role
in much of what you will see and do in
Southeast Alaska.
Tongass National Forest
www.fs.fed.us/r10/tongass
Clear streams flowing out of Tongass National
Forest’s mountains are habitat for salmon and
opportunity for fishers. The nation’s largest
national forest provides recreational options from
sea to peaks. Wilderness areas welcome the
adventurous. Well-maintained trails invite
exploration. Remote cabins welcome those who like
to settle in and soak up nature. If you plan more
than a casual visit to the forest, plan carefully and
outfit your party for changeable, challenging
conditions. Be mindful that bears may be feeding
along salmon streams near the ocean. Local guides
and merchants can provide advice and provisions
for an unforgettable backcountry experience.

Native Culture
T
he heritage
of Northwest
Coast tribes is
integral to our
lifestyle. Twenty
residents in every
hundred around
Ketchikan trace
their heritage to
the Tlingit, Haida
and Tsimshian
tribes of Alaska.
The world’s largest
collection of
totem poles is
found here, and
you can meet the
artists and teachers
whose work keeps
the culture vital.
• Saxman Native Village and
Totem Bight State Park display poles and clan houses.
The two totem parks also feature scheduled performances
of Native dancers.
• Totem Heritage Center is a
federal historic site housing
ancient poles retrieved from
abandoned villages. The
center has instructed students
in traditional Northwest
Coast design and Native art
since the 1970s.
• Artisans at Saxman’s carving
center work on contemporary
totem poles and invite you to
get close.
• Southeast Alaska Discovery
Center features a replica of
a summer fish camp and a
display depicting traditional
Alaska Native life.
• Tongass Historical Museum
displays ancient tools and
implements.
The work of master carver Nathan Jackson is in private collections and museums from Ketchikan to Berlin and you can
see numerous pieces around our community. (The “Art Lives Here” book provides handy maps for many artists’ public
works.) Totem parks in Saxman and at Totem Bight State Park display nearly a century of carving. Local carvers can be
seen at work in carving sheds. Totem Heritage Center’s collection of poles from village sites and its interpretive
materials open up the historical book. Traditional regalia, such as woven hats and button robes, is seen in
scheduled dance performances at totem parks.

surrounding ocean
with an amazing
array of wildlife.
The temperate
rain forest
environment is
not only one of
the most beautiful
places on earth:
it’s also one of the
most biologically
productive places.
• More than 250 species of
birds have been identified
around the Ketchikan area.
The Alaska Hummingbird
Festival in April celebrates
the springtime return of
migratory birds.
• Migrating humpback and
orca whales, sea lions, seals
and porpoises are often
spotted on cruise
excursions.

Our eagles are majestically apparent, whether perching
en masse in our tall conifers or winging over the sea as
they hunt for fish.

NATURE & WILDLIFE
• Sitka black-tail deer inhabit the
beaches and forest. Mountain goats
and wolves are often sighted at
higher elevations.
• Black bears may be seen as they
search for food: salmon in streams,
berries and other edible plants in the
forest.

• Other prized ocean species: halibut,
red snapper, ling cod and rock cod.
Shrimp and crab are abundant.
Saltwater fishing guides know these waters and how to catch and handle fish. Most operators also help you with
filleting and processing your catch—such as this nice halibut brought to the dock downtown. If you’re a DIY angler,
Ketchikan-area businesses can fix you up with boats, tackle, apparel and everything else you’ll need.
